  • Oscar-Komponist James Horner I Samarbeid Med Norsk Stjernesøskenpar
    17-03-2015 15:15 CET Oscar-komponist James Horner i samarbeid med norsk stjernesøskenpar Den Oscar-vinnende kompinisten James Horner har blitt lokket vekk fra storskjermen og tilbake til konserthallen, takket være det norske stjernesøskenparet Mari og Håkon Samuelsen. Sammen har de overbevist Horner om å skrive hans første konsertstykke på over 30 år - en konsert for violin, cello og orkester kalt "Pas de Deux". Opptaket fra verdensremieren i Liverpool i November kommer på deres debutalbum som slippes på Mercury Classic 25. mai 2015. Horner er tidligere kjent for stykker som Titanic, Braveheart og Avatar, og dette er det første verket komponisten har skrevet for fiolin og cello, samt det første bestillingsverket i rekken fra Mari Silje og Håkon Samuelsen. I sommer inngikk stjernesøskenparet Mari Silje og Håkon Samuelsen en langsiktig eksklusiv albumavtale med Mercury Classics. I november 2014 fremførte de for første gang Horner-verket "Pas de Deux" i Philharmonic Hall i Liverpool. Verket ble fremført med Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra og dirigent Vasily Petrenko på orkesterets 175-års jubileum og åpningskonsert i deres nyrenoverte konserthus. Produsent for albumet er Simon Rhodes (kjent fra Skyfall, Harry Potter og Avatar samt Grammy- vinnenende album med Berlin Philharmonikerne). "Vi hadde aldri trodd vi skulle få til dette. Det føles fantastisk," sier fiolinist Mari Samuelsen. "Det er en drøm som har blitt virkelighet," samtykker hennes cellistbror Håkon. Søskenparet har opptrådt mye hver for seg, og siden de var i tidlig tyveårene har de jobbet som en duo. I 2004 grunnla de den årlige julekonserten i Vang kirke med Prinsesse Märtha Louise som nå er sendt i over 116 millioner hjem verden over.

  • Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
    Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017).

Degree awarded June 2016 ii © 2016 Chelsea Nicole Oden iii THESIS ABSTRACT Chelsea Nicole Oden Master of Arts School of Music and Dance June 2016 Title: Reflection and Introspection in the Film Scores of Thomas Newman The most transformative moments in life cause us to look both backward (reflection) and inward (introspection). Likewise, reflective and introspective moments in film often align with important plot points. Separating music and dialogue from the rhythms of the image, these moments suspend time, creating a distinct temporality for the character(s) and the viewer to observe the past and the present in juxtaposition. The music of film composer Thomas Newman brings to life some of the most beautiful reflective and introspective moments in cinema. In this thesis, I approach Newman’s understudied, but highly successful film scores from narrative, musical, and audiovisual perspectives.
